Jaguar from SRK is hosting another session at Anime Pavilion in Falls Church on Sunday night starting at 6pm. These are multi-game casuals, with a strong KOF showing. There's also a sizable contingent of VF players who float through.

Truth. Young bucks are welcome to school me in all tourney settings, but I don't need them in my house.
The exception is factual, legitimate children. My girl is building her MLP stick and will school the under-8 league.
It's worth recognizing that for fighters, particularly SC, *when* you push the buttons is absolutely crucial.
I was trying to set up Training Mode to practice defending against Yoshi's Grasshopper mixups. I recorded GH K, GH B and the SGH unblockable, then set the dummy to JG an attack and...
This evening I had several matches where the CR hop-throw crossed up my opponent and triggered the back throw version. Working in training mode, I confirmed that it happens consistently when the throw hits the top of the player model while on the downward arc, which means that it's very model...
Nice to see you here! I was the bald guy playing Asta. I got to play a brief set with your Maxi, but I had to go lose my Street Fighter match. So glad to be done with that game. We also had a short chat about the need for an 8 and under FG league. I'll keep an eye out for you on XBL.
Welcome! It seems there's a vibrant Tekken community at VMU, along with a cadre of stealthy VF5 players. There's been several casual sessions at Anime Pavilion in Falls Church over the last few weeks, organized by Jaguar of SRK and mainly announced in the SRK DMV thread. I'll be sure to post...
I'm heading out to The D&B event shortly, with a 360 SCV setup in tow. Hope to see some of you for some casual play alongside the SCV and 2d tourneys.

Anyone interested in some casual play this evening at CyberGround in Fairfax/Falls Church? I need to clock a few hours of real play (not online) before the D&B event next weekend.

I'll look to start between 8 and 9. PM for txt number
There's been several events at the Anime Pavillion in Falls Church on Sunday evenings recently.Reasonable space with 4-6 stations, but playing a mix of fighters. KOF, Marvel, VF5 . I'll certainly bring SC5 to the next one.
CyberGrounds is right near there, and they've had fighter events in...
I know that buying the game on Day 1 means that my hopes for iCade support or local multiplay will go unanswered, but what the hell. It's Calibur.
It's beautiful on the iPad. In a few minutes of Practice mode I was able to nail the iGT about 1/20, as opposed to my 1/5 average with real...
Anytime you're in the area I'd happily play a ft5 with you, and then pay you $10 to just shut up the needless adolescent bravado. Enjoy your Gordita Supreme, alone, secure in the knowledge that you are the true master.
I'll be playing the game.
That's an interesting and welcome change. Too many people's only impression of the GI mechanic centered around the endless GI-exchanges in training modes, or GI-GI-GI-Throw sequences in casuals.
You mentioned that GI didn't work well in 3 or 4, which I'll take your word on, as even SC2's...
I'm happy to relearn SCV as a new game, but I'm trying to express what I enjoy about the GI mechanic and how central it seems to what makes SC unique and not just Tekken/DoA with weapons.
That's a terrible and frightening sentence. The idea that anything should be guaranteed after GI, meaning that the only barrier between the GI-ing player and that damage is execution skill, runs counter to my understanding of GI in every prior game.
GI has always been another form of...
